Hi,
I think what you need is something like this:
<ItemTemplate>
<li>
<asp:LinkButton
Text='<%# Container.DataItem( "CategoryName" ) %>'
CommandArgument='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "LinkName") %>'
Runat="Server" />
</ItemTemplate>
This way, you can make the connection between CategoryName and LinkName
using the LinkButton.
Hope this will help you!
